Krewe de Canailles We kick off Lafayette Mardi Gras season — rolling two Fridays before Mardi Gras every year. Any group of people can pull together to create a krewe.

A Walking Parade Without Barriers

Our mission is to promote inclusivity, sustainability and creativity to create a Lafayette Mardi Gras experience like no other. Krewe de Canailles is a walking parade composed of individual krewes. The only rules are your floats have to be human-powered and your throws handmade and eco-friendly. No plastic beads at this parade. No barricades.

We’re hosting a KDC Meet & Greet at Taco Sisters on Tues, Sept. 8 from 6-8p. OPEN TO EVERYONE - past, present, and maybe members! Come ask your burning questions (e.g., how do I maintain eye contact with the crowd while doing a line dance, handing out a throw, AND taking a sip of my drank simultaneously?) and break bread with fellow comrade Canailles. It’s also game night at Taco Sisters and they have half-priced drinks! Woooo!

❌2027 THEME IS HERE❌

Hey look Lafayette, we’re in double digits now! Feels like just yesterday we were a newborn baby parade with a few floats, eight cops, some glitter, and a dream – but we’re all grown up now and celebrating our 10th birthday! (And yes, we will accept cake, thanks for asking.)

But just because we’re grown doesn’t mean we’re going to start behaving… cross our heart with an X, we promise to always keep it real, keep it canailles, and keep it real canailles.

(cue The X-Files theme song)

WE’RE eXtra eXcited ABOUT THIS YEAR’S THEME… UH… IT’S X! (Get it? It’s the Roman numeral for 10. Wow, we’re like really smart now.)

Grab your ex-girlfriend and head to Downtown Lafayette where X marks the spot on Fri, Jan 29th, 2027. We’re expecting an XL extravaganza – think high-octane X games, Gen X grunge, X-ray vision (heyooo!), and X-men superheroes! As the late great artist DMX famously said, “X GON’ GIVE IT TO YA!”

Thank you for helping us get here. Here’s to another decade of KDC and we’ll see you on the streets real soon!
